Hi Tsi,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum. This is a great place to get help and information.

Could you check on your Cyclone model #. I may have missed something, but the 4536 is new to me. With the model # confirmed, I'm sure another Cyclone owner can answer your question.

Sorry it's a 3950. It was labeled wrong when I bought it, as a 3800.

I think these are the stock rims on most Heartland Toy Haulers...

http://www.tredittire.com/T07-8-Spoke-P73.aspx

and it list the 8-6.5 bolt pattern you mentioned with 0 offset.

Re: What bolt pattern are tralier rims..

Mine look a bit different then those,
but this leads me to my next question!!!!
I am going to 19.5 inch rims on my truck (gmc dually) with heavy duty tires http://www.tnwheelandtire.com/site/769454/page/427329
had anyone put 19.5 on the tralier too????
they offer 14 ply side wall tires that last ALONG time... On the trucks anyways...

19.5's may not work on a TH. You will have to make sure the tire will clear each other. Also keep in mind that the axles flex making tight turns and the tires can rub on each other. Thats a bad thing.

If you check the Tredit product page (Heartland's tire/wheel supplier) you'll probably find your exact wheel,
it looks like some of the Cyclones use the T09 which has the same specs.

A check of the wheel manufacture site Sendel (listed above) confirms these wheels can handle a 14 ply 110 PSI "16 inch tire"

I pass these links along from previous post I've read.

Re: What bolt pattern are tralier rims..

is there a desired amount of room that you want to keep between the tires??
or I as simple are looking what I have stock and keep it to as close to that.
I would use 19.5 for the look as well as the tire options available.

The biggest problem is the smallest 19.5 tire is 33" in diameter compared to about 30.5" for a 235-85-16 or 215-75-17.5.

225/70/19.5 are = 31.4 inch. so that would leve me with around 1.5 -2 inches between tires... do you guys think that may be enogh???? maybe some of yours are about that stock.....???
I would just need to look into the offset next..

TSI, heres the deal in a nut shell. For every inch in diamater of a tire (circle), you gain a 1/2". This means that 2 tires facing each other....you have closed the gap by 1". If you had 3" to start....you now only have 2" and so on. A 1 1/2 to 2" will probably not be enough for the tires to clear in a hard turn. If the tires rub together hard enough while rotating....both or all three will stop rotating. It could cause tire and suspension damage. Think about it this way....2 tires rotating the same way....when they make contact with each other....the rear tire will try to make the front tire rotate the (backwards) other way. Three tires doing this could be a diaster at any speed. JMHO, but I would not push that envelope.
